In a heartwarming display of community spirit, over 60 employees from corporate offices, dealerships, and management teams came together to clean the streets of Portland. This initiative, organized by the Solve Organization, extended to four different areas: Bend, Springfield, Medford, and Portland. The mission was clear: to combat litter and vandalism across Oregon and Southwest Washington.
The Solve Organization, with a decade-long commitment to this cause, partnered with Lithia Driveway for the event. What started with just 12 motivated individuals has now grown into a significant movement, with over 40 participants in Portland alone and simultaneous events across Oregon. This growth is a testament to the power of collective effort and the importance of community involvement.
The event was more than just a clean-up; it was a demonstration of Lithia's culture of volunteerism. As one participant noted, "It's amazing and so heartwarming to me that people are willing to give up their time out of their day to come down and really just help beautify our communities and take pride in what we do and represent Lithia Driveway."
This initiative underscores the belief that any organization can write checks, but true commitment is shown by getting involved. Alongside a check presentation, Lithia employees rolled up their sleeves and picked up trash, embodying the spirit of community and environmental stewardship.
Such efforts not only enhance the beauty of our surroundings but also foster a sense of pride and responsibility among community members. It's a reminder that every bit helps, and together, we can make a significant impact.
